It was good to chat with you on the phone tonight, Bernie. As I told you, once you get the festival bug, you'll want to travel the world to fly kites. Soon festivals will be inviting you to attend!

I'll be there, mainly for the NASKC, but I'm sure I'll be wandering around the SLK's too. MM, I look forward to seeing the double-star and dragon "live and in person"!

I'll be there too, competing in the stunt kite competition (flying, not building) but will wander over to the single line area.
We should have name tags so we can recognize each other...
